Linda and your family and Dad. So sorry to know I will never see that sweet little woman sitting on the sidelines anymore. She was a good trooper for the chapter. Never was afraid to pitch in when asked to do anything. She will certainly be missed by me and a lot of others. Now she is at peace. Farewell my Sister!--Joanne
